New York Times and CNBC twist Donald Trump 3rd party statement into threat

Trump said, quoted here:

"If I'm treated fairly by the Republicans, and I don't win, I'm not going to go into doing the third party," Mr. Trump said in an interview on NBC's "Meet the Press."

The CNBC headline twists this to

"Trump: Treat me 'fairly' or I'll run 3rd party"

based on The New York Times twisting Trump's statement in the lede:

'A defiant Donald J. Trump suggested on Sunday that he had been singled out for attacks by the hosts of Thursday's Republican presidential debate and again threatened a third-party White House bid if he was not treated "reasonably fairly" by party leaders.'

Trump said if he's treated fairly and loses he WON'T run third party.

The real story here is that Megyn Kelly and Bret Baier had their marching orders from Rupert Murdoch to destroy the anti-free-trader and anti-amnesty Trump in order to make sure a pliant candidate wins the Republican nomination who will do the bidding of the libertarians who have overseen the export of American jobs and the dilution of middle class earning power by importing cheap foreign labor.
